This amazing handmade eco friendly natural small container is made from sustainable Portuguese cork. 

These fantastic cork st are natural and eco friendly. They will decorate any room in your home or office. I work directly with cork farmers in Portugal. Portugal produces the best cork in the world. These boxes are individually hand crafted from cork bark, the first stripping of the cork oak trees. The bark boxes are naturally dramatic, rich in texture, warm and as durable as Mother Nature meant bark to be.

Cork has amazing characteristics. It is light weight, rot resistant, non-toxic, good compression and expansion, fire resistant, impermeable, soft, and buoyant.

Cork bark is “stripped” off the cork oak trees at appropriate intervals without damage to the trees and allows new bark to grow in its place so there is no harm to nature, no trees are cut or destroyed, no disturbance of flora and fauna.
